Amputation Injury
Amputation injuries continue to occur in Connecticut despite increased safety regulation and the presence of both governmental and industry manufacturing and employment safety dictates. A liability injury claim brought on behalf of those affected often crosses several practice areas with which my firm is well acquainted. Many of these injuries occur in the work environment and involve machine injuries and mobile equipment or vehicles. Full or partial body part amputations are due to a multitude of causes and require major life and psychological adjustments, but recovery is possible and I have seen excellent results over the longer term. Frankly, financial security and taking account of future ergonomic needs as well as supportive medical care gains much of the credit in my experience. Often times an injured Amputee will also need to pursue a workers compensation claim, a general negligence claim and on occassion a products liability claim as well. We can handle all aspects of these matters for you so you will not require a seperate firm to handle your workers compensation case and another to investigate a general liability tort claim. We have received multiple substantial verdicts and settlements in this area including both six and seven figure results for our clients. My firm works with all manner of engineering, construction safety, OSHA Safety and accident reconstruction specialists who provide essential investigation, reconstruction and expert witness services to for the benefit of our clients. We take an exhaustive approach to developing these claims. My Firm has handled cases involving a wide variety of injuries which sometimes accompany the amputation itself including , brain injuries, paralysis, fractures requiring surgery, severe lacerations and burns to name a few. Contact us now and we will agressively and tirelessly pursue your case. Getting legal help early is perhaps the single most important thing you can do now. Please keep in mind that strict Statute of Limitation periods apply and often case results can be enhanced by early involvement of councel in order to secure critical evidence, witness statements and avoid unhelpful contact between you and an insurance adjuster or investigator.We pursue these types of cases, when justified, strictly on a contingency fee basis and advance all costs of investigation which you are not responsible for unless we recover a Judgement or settlement on your behalf
